Abstract
There is perhaps no area of Security Council activity where the collective fingerprints of non-permanent members are more evident than that of sanctions
reform. Non-permanent members have been at the vanguard of practically all
major efforts to refine and improve the Council’s decision-making surrounding the application, administration, and implementation of sanctions under
Article 41 of the UN Charter.1 Indeed, non-permanent member contributions
have been particularly noticeable at critical moments when the reputation of
sanctions, and consequently that of the Council itself, has been tarnished by
their disproportionate impact on the lives of innocent civilians.
